SB411, Civil Immunity Bill, Signed Into Law

We're pleased to report to you that SB411 was signed into law by the Governor today. This bill, now law, provides protection to homeowners in the event of the injury or death of an assailant while in the act of committing a crime.

Our community spent several years working on this bill and it's a perfect example of how persistent pressure and focused efforts can reap concrete results.

The law will go into effect October 1 of this year.

Should not even need a new law for this type of thing. Your home is your castle. Someone enters it you should be allowed to kill them.

10:23-This is the so called "castle doctrine". Glad to hear that O'Malley signed it. It wouldn't have changed my way of defending myself and my family, but it's good to have the law on your side.
